Abstract
A generated signal is injected into a first network node in a set of network nodes. The generated signal comprises a predetermined pattern, the predetermined pattern comprises a plurality of time periods, wherein during each time period in the plurality of time periods a first data traffic is prevented from exiting the first network node. By monitoring data flow within the set of network nodes while the generated signal is being injected, a correlation with the generated signal is detected, the correlation correlating a second network node with the first network node. The second network node is associated with the first network node. Responsive to the association, traffic from the second network node to the set of network nodes is blocked.
